I grew up with Diane and her brothers on Fairview Ct. we all played together and had lots of fun. Played mother and children ( I do not think children do that now). We made spook houses in Halloween She was in same grade as I. Rode to school with Anne Hatchett in her Corvair 7 if us. So sorry to hear this loss. May God be with you all.
I transferred to Harrodsburg High in my senior year. I didn’t know anybody. Diane became a friend right away and that was great. RIP Diane.
